Jah - how were the Handsome Family? I'm very jealous I didn't get to go.....hope it was a good 'un.


Anyhoo....have some Kenny Anderson. Because he deserves a greater audience than he gets, because he's excellent and because I know some people will like it....

I wasn't overly familiar with their stuff but the little that I'd heard I'd really liked. They were excellent and I really enjoyed their set. I liked the humour in the darkness of the lyrics and and the harmonies were beautiful so I'll definitely be investing in some of their CDs as soon as possible.

Wot?s post rock? Is it like post punk? (An odd fabrication in itself) or is it posties rocking out in their spare time? Or 9 minute long power ballads with 5 minute guitar solos about missing parcels? Or angry 1 minute long 3 chord rants about stupid posts on internet forums? Or the official music of the Society for the Provision of Support for Fences? Or an obscure musical genre inspired by the ever present but often undervalued need to keep telephone lines out of the road?

Like most labels it's meaningless in itself.


It's basically Prog (oops, another label) with louder guitars and bigger sounds.


God Speed You Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, Sigur Ros, 65 Days of Static etc are probably the most famous post rockers.


Or according to wikipedia on one of it's uncensored pages "It is the use of 'rock instrumentation' for non-rock purposes. Practitioners of the genre's style typically produce instrumental music."

Which sounds like nonsense to me.

      Fruit picking without a car

      By SeaHibiscus · Posted

      Yes, I have. We have gone fruit (seed/nut and mushroom) foraging in and out of London. I'll just recommend a couple of places I've found most rewarding. Wormwood Scrubs: you'll find blackberries, plums, sloes and apple trees. Holmewood (train journey, then either bike ride/cab to the top of the hill or a very long walk): bilberries galore! Be prepared to spend a few hours picking. It's a lovely area to explore and I am sure there are other wild fruits (I've only been twice due to the distance).

      Had a green woodpecker visit our back garden this morning. Appeared to be eating ants or ant larvae.
